Today we were given the chance to show our work to the class and to a visiting Illustrator, Holly Wales. We were asked to chose three pieces that represent the direction we wish to take in level 6. I decided to include a typographic piece as I would like to continue exploring my interest in expressive typography, I chose a figure drawn in pen and ink, as this is a style I enjoy working in, particularly with figures and in greyscale with an occasional splash of colour, and finally a double page layout from my 'Lady of Shallot' book as this combined image and text with a delicate style I have began sing more recently.
As I had moved over from Visual Communications this was a great opportunity, for me to see the other student's work and the variety of styles used within the course. I was interested to see how broadly the term 'Illustration' could be used to include so many different medias and ideas. This was incredibly inspiring and I found it very interesting to here each person talk about their work and their different passions for the subject.
